Stupor Patriots Communications has received some very disastrous news from our Stupor Secret Intelligence Division the AP directly from our Stupor Secret Spy Bird the KH-451/2.

"Dateline Afghanistan - Three Americans jailed for torturing Afghans in a freelance hunt for terrorists have won shorter sentences but failed to persuade an appeals court to overturn their convictions.*** Jonathan Idema, Brent Bennett and Edward Caraballo appealed the rulings to the supreme court, appeals court Judge Abdul Latif said Thursday. Officials said it would be at least two weeks before the high court considers the case. At a closed session Tuesday, a four-judge appeals court in Kabul upheld the convictions for torture and operating a private jail, Latif told The Associated Press.

The court quashed a charge that the three men entered the country illegally. Idema's sentence was reduced from 10 years to five; Bennett's was cut from 10 to three; and Caraballo's was cut from eight to two, Latif said. Michael Macey, a spokesman for the U.S. Embassy, confirmed the ruling. The Americans were arrested in July after Afghan security forces raided a house in Kabul and discovered eight Afghan men who said they had been abused.

The three were convicted two months later. Latif said four Afghans convicted as accomplices were freed Tuesday because they bore little responsibility for the Americans' activities and had already spent eight months in jail. Idema, the alleged ringleader, a 48-year-old former soldier from Fayetteville, N.C., insists he and the other Americans were tracking terror suspects, including al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in close cooperation with American and Afghan security forces. The U.S. military acknowledges accepting a prisoner from Idema but insists it realized shortly afterward that he was an impostor.

NATO peacekeepers also helped the Americans on three raids, later saying they also had been duped.Mohammed Ismail Habed, the presiding judge in the appeal, told the AP the charge of illegal entry was dropped because the Americans presented documents signed by Afghan defense officials.

He said the three men were ``very upset'' when the court upheld the remaining convictions.The three Americans are being held at Kabul's Pul-e Charkhi prison, a facility notorious for horrific conditions and summary executions. Officials have lodged the Americans in a heated, carpeted room with satellite television and their own bathroom."
